The Artist

13 years building a recognizable language

Rich Harris creates bold abstract surrealism that blends realism, graphic elements, and strong composition into large-scale pieces designed to live on the body for decades.

His work is not decoration. It is contemporary art that treats the human form as a living canvas — in the tradition of fine artists like Daniel Arsham and Okuda San Miguel, translated into ink and skin.

“My focus is long-term tattoo quality rather than trends. Every piece is designed specifically for that body, that person, that story.”

Based between the UK, Dallas, and New York, Rich operates a premium international practice built on authenticity, creative excellence, and a trust-based client experience that collectors return to year after year.

I have wanted a tattoo from Rich for years and now I can proudly say that I have one and it is beyond what I could have hoped for. The whole experience was incredible and the studio is beautiful. I can't recommend highly enough and will be back again.

Abigail Bianco Google Review · ★★★★★

From initial contact with my artist Rich, to the booking process and the actual appointment itself, all has been brilliant. Aftercare info provided is detailed, with Rich providing feedback and tips via email to ensure the healing process is going well.

D Gallery Google Review · ★★★★★

Rich is one of the most talented artists I've seen and super sweet guy who goes out of his way to make all his clients leave happy. Definitely one of the best studios in the UK.

Pras Suntaramoorthy Google Review · ★★★★★

Great experience, two long days but it went by so quickly. Highly recommend if anyone is looking for a quality piece of artwork on themselves.

The Harris Signature Process

Designed for your body, revealed on the day

Every session follows a precise methodology developed over 13 years and refined across thousands of pieces. No generic flash. No premade designs. Every element is conceived for your anatomy, your story, and your vision.

01
Consultation
Share your vision, placement, and references. Rich evaluates composition, body flow, and feasibility to ensure the piece will work beautifully on your specific anatomy.
02
Design
The design is created on the day of your session. This is intentional — Rich works with the energy of the moment and the reality of your body, not a static screen mockup. Changes are made together, in real time.
03
Execution
Full-day session. Bold abstract surrealism with meticulous attention to composition, flow, visibility, and longevity. Each piece is built to look striking on day one and age gracefully over decades.
04
Aftercare
You receive detailed pre-session and post-session care instructions. Send healing progress photos via Instagram every two days. Rich monitors your piece through the critical healing window.

The Dallas Window

Why Dallas, why now

Dallas has emerged as one of the most significant tattoo markets in the United States. A growing collector community, a culture that respects large-scale premium work, and a client base that understands the difference between ink and art.

Rich has tattooed across four continents. He chooses guest spot locations based on one criterion: where the collectors are ready for the level of work he produces. Dallas is that city in 2026.

“I don't go where there's the most demand. I go where people understand what they're commissioning. Dallas has that energy right now.”

This is a single window. Eight sessions. Once they are filled, the next opportunity to work with Rich in Texas will depend entirely on his international schedule and studio commitments in the UK.

Premium Environment
Private studio setting. Full-day sessions with zero interruptions. Your experience is curated from arrival to aftercare.
Designed On-Site
No pre-made designs. Rich creates your piece on the day, working directly with your body's anatomy and your creative input in real time.
Limited Access
8 sessions total. This is not an open calendar. Each collector is selected based on project fit and artistic vision alignment.

Questions

Frequently asked

As soon as possible. Rich's guest spots typically fill within 2-3 weeks of announcement. Once a slot is booked, it is locked. There is no waiting list for this engagement.

Cancellation and rescheduling policies are discussed during the booking process. If you need to reschedule within the June Dallas window, Rich will do his best to accommodate, subject to availability.

No. Rich's process is intentionally collaborative and in-the-moment. The design is created on the day of your session, working directly with your body. This is how he produces one-of-one pieces that feel organic and alive rather than static transfers of a screen mockup. You will discuss your vision, preferences, and references during the consultation phase before the session day.

Medium to large-scale only. Full sleeves, half sleeves, backpieces, chest panels, thigh pieces, full forearms, and large leg pieces. Rich does not take small tattoo projects during guest spots. The minimum commitment is a 2-day session.

References are helpful but not required. Rich works best when he understands the mood, energy, and story you want the piece to carry. Pinterest boards, Instagram posts, art references, or even a written description of how you want the piece to feel are all valuable. The more context, the better the collaboration.

No. Rich's work is engineered to heal clean when aftercare instructions are followed properly. In 13 years of professional tattooing, his pieces consistently heal without needing touch-ups. You will receive detailed pre-session and post-session care instructions, and Rich monitors your healing via Instagram photo updates every 2 days.

The June 18-20 slot is designed for collectors who want an extended piece that benefits from three full days of work. This could be a large backpiece, a full sleeve with exceptional detail, or a complex multi-element composition. The extra day allows Rich to push the piece further than a standard 2-day session permits.

All pricing and payment details are discussed directly with Rich after your initial consultation via WhatsApp.

P.S. — Every collector who owns a Rich Harris piece will tell you the same thing: the experience is as significant as the result. The design process, the collaboration, the trust — it is not something you can replicate through a screen or a flash sheet. If you have been following Rich's work and waiting for the right moment, this is it. Dallas. June 2026. Eight sessions. Seven remain.

P.P.S. — If you are traveling to Dallas specifically for this guest spot, Rich is happy to discuss logistics and studio location details once your booking is confirmed. Several past collectors have built their trips around their sessions. The studio address and all operational details are provided upon booking confirmation.
